    Still goalless in Empoli, but Juventus have their best chance of the match. A fine run down the left wing from Kwadwo Asamoah ends with Empoli goalkeeper Davide Bassi parrying his powerful shot.

    The ball falls to Claudio Marchisio 15 yards out, but the Italy midfielder drags his shot wide.

    Into injury time in the first half at the Allian Arena. Bayern have done a lot of the pressing but Dortmund have the advantage.

    Luis Suarez will make his competitive home debut for Barcelona this evening. He is named in the starting line-up alongside Lionel Messi and Neymar. Not a bad attacking trio.

    Live commentary to come from 19:00 GMT.

    Madan Roka:, external Dortmund can always play football we know.

    They certainly don't look like a bottom three side so far today Madan.....

    How long can this go on? Dortmund are under real pressure now.

    Arjen Robben looks certain to equalises as he waltzes through the visitor's defence but, just six yards out, his shot is deflected wide by some desperate defending.

    Bayern should be level.

  6. GREAT SAVE!published at 18:10 Greenwich Mean Time 1 November 2014

    Roman Wiedenfeller take a bow. The Dortmund goalkeeper is having a stormer.

    This time, Arjen Robben's incisive through ball puts Thomas Muller through but his flick is blocked by the sprawling goalkeeper's trailing arm. Muller's radar isn't quite on at the moment

    A spell of pressure from Bayern but Dortmund survive just. Thomas Muller and Arjen Robben both go close as they bid to reply instantly.

    It hasn't been a complete surprise either. Just seconds earlier Aubameyang was denied by some sharp goalkeeping from Manuel Neuer as Dortmund look electric on the break.

    Bayern have upset Dortmund through their pursuit of Marco Reus in recent months. Maybe the visitors will have the last laugh.

    Take that. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's cross from the right is met by Marco Reus's head and, via a deflection off Mehdi Benatia, the ball flies into the net.

    Possibly an own goal but Reus is taking the credit.

    Incredibly Pep Guardiola has lost only four times against a German team in competitive games as manager of Bayern but three of them have been against Dortmund. Reasons for hope for the visitors perhaps.

    With Dortmund currently sitting in the Bundesliga's bottom three, we are asking for your memorable sporting falls from grace.

    A great 20-yard hit from Arjen Robben is turned wide by goalkeeper Roman Weidenfeller. The Dutchman cuts inside and lets fly from just outside the penalty area.

    Bayern are looking more threatening but Dortmund look dangerous on the break.

    It is half-time in the Serie A match between Empoli and leaders Juventus, but it remains goalless.

    Juventus will go three points clear at the top if they win, after second-placed Roma lost 2-0 at Napoli earlier today.

    Massimiliano Allegri's Juventus side have only won one of their three Champions League matches and the boss clearly has his mind on Tuesday's vital game against Olympiakos with Carlos Tevez, Paul Pogba and Fernando Llorente all named only on the bench.

    Defending La Liga champions Atletico take a 1-0 lead at home to Cordoba on the stroke of half time through Antoine Griezmann.

    Atletico currently move into second - but Barcelona are still to come this evening.

    Bayern are turning the screw now as first Thomas Muller drags a shot wide of goal before volleying Arjen Robben's cross straight at goalkeeper Roman Weidenfeller.

    We have a short break in play as Henrikh Mkhitaryan is pole-axed by a clearance from his own goalkeeper. It looked comical but painful. He is back up now.

  16. CLOSE!published at 17:46 Greenwich Mean Time 1 November 2014

    And just as I say that, Thomas Muller should put Bayern ahead. The German international races on to Jerome Boateng's dinked through ball but, meeting the ball on the volley, he slides it just wide.

    So bottom three then Dortmund? How are you going to respond?

    Quite well it would seem as they match an unbeaten Bayern in the opening 12 minutes. The game is yet to really get going though.

    There have already been four games in the Bundesliga today, with Wolfsburg securing a 4-0 away victory at Stuttgart to move up to second in the table, one point behind Bayern Munich.

    Ivan Perisic scored twice with Robin Knoche and ex-Chelsea midfielder Kevin De Bruyne (pictured) also on target for Wolfsburg.

    A goal from ex-Tottenham midfielder Rafael van der Vaart was enough for Hamburg to beat Bayer Leverkusen, a result that sees Borussia Dortmund drop into the bottom three.

  19. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 17:42 Greenwich Mean Time 1 November 2014

    The hosts are almost stunned by a flowing move from Dortmund.

    The ball is worked to Henrikh Mkhitaryan and, after working his way across the field, his 20-yard strike skims the outside of the post with Manuel Neuer well beaten.

    Dortmund boss Jurgen Klopp certainly has got a lot to think about these days. He has enjoyed pretty much continuous success since being appointed in 2008, until now.

    His past record ensures the fans are still with him though.
